This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things Lyrics
I don't care what you're thinking
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
She looks at him, her heartbeat starts to melt
She said "I made you up to hurt myself"
You leave the room and I smell you on my clothes
You're dangerous and beautiful, my thorn and my rose
Let's just make things work
There's nowhere better than here
I don't care what you're thinking
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
I don't care what you're thinking
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
I hate the pain that I went and put you through
'cause I'll never be perfect 'cause I'll never be you
What the air doesn't see the heart can't breath
But all that pain went away when I saw you leave
Let's just make things work
There's nowhere better than this
I don't care what you're thinking
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
I don't care what you're thinking
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
Say what you want, it would always end
(This was never gonna be simple)
Say what you want, it was all pretend
(This was never gonna be simple)
Say what you want, it would always end
(This was never gonna be simple)
Say what you want, it was all pretend
(This was never gonna be simple)
I don't care what you're thinking
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
I don't care what you're thinking
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
This was never gonna be simple (Begging for more)
This was never gonna be simple (Begging for more)
This was never gonna be simple (Begging for more)
This was never gonna be simple (Begging for more)
This was never gonna be simple
This was never gonna be simple
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
She said "I made you up to hurt myself"
You leave the room and I smell you on my clothes
You're dangerous and beautiful, my thorn and my rose
There's nowhere better than here
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
I don't care what you're thinking
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
'cause I'll never be perfect 'cause I'll never be you
What the air doesn't see the heart can't breath
But all that pain went away when I saw you leave
There's nowhere better than this
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
I don't care what you're thinking
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
(This was never gonna be simple)
Say what you want, it was all pretend
(This was never gonna be simple)
(This was never gonna be simple)
Say what you want, it was all pretend
(This was never gonna be simple)
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
I don't care what you're thinking
I don't care what you're saying
When everything is gone, we'll still be begging for more
This was never gonna be simple (Begging for more)
This was never gonna be simple (Begging for more)
This was never gonna be simple (Begging for more)
This was never gonna be simple
This was never gonna be simple

To me, this is about a relationship ending. He is still in love with the girl and he beleives she is still in love with him. However, the girl is trying to end it as he obviously did something to "hurt" her and put her through pain. But he's trying to tell her not to end it as "there's nowhere better than this". The "this was never gunna be simple" bit I think is him saying that the relationship was never going to be easy, but she can't just bottle it and let it die out. Instead she should be trying and fighting for it.
I agree with February Snow :'D This song is amazing.

And I think. That towards the end: "Say what you want, it would always end Say what you want, it was all pretend", Is when he realises that it's over.

This is probably my favourite song on their new album.
I think "her heartbeat starts to melt" should be "her heart it starts to melt". It seems to make more sense, but it's pretty obscure to listen to.
Yeah I agree with dawnwithoutsound, I think it's "her heart it starts to melt." This song is amazing.
So what is this song about?
